I love tarte Tatin, and these puff pastry bananas are very similar. At least in how they're prepared, since I swapped the traditional dough for puff pastry. The result is a sweet, crispy dessert.

Me gusta la cocina -sobre todo la repostería- leer, viajar, el cine, pasear en Harley y la música. Amo los animales y la naturaleza, y, por sobre todas las cosas, valoro mucho la amistad.
